Steve: MMX Midrange Monday (legs/chest/back +)

Summer is here–this is the official first day. And thanks to my injury–that has finally healed (I hope)–I’m not quite in shape. I see myself in the mirror and realize there’s work to do. I’m ready to hunker down, however. Still liking my quick-HIT workouts–but now I can add in some cardio on off days…

Steve: Dbl Xcel Friday (legs/chest/back +)

Same as last Friday–with one difference at the end. Here’s the drill: Stretch move with X-centric reps first (1/6 tempo) followed immediately by X-celeration (1.5-second reps).

Hard to believe we’re halfway through June–and my workouts still feel like they are in first gear. Injuries can do that, even minor ones like a calf pull–especially when you’re old. Shoulders and arms were on the agenda today, and I still kept the volume down–an X-centric/X-celeration set of a stretch move followed by an X-celeration set on a midrange move after a 10-second rest/pause…

Jonathan: Torched Tuesday (chest, lats, triceps, abs)

I changed things up today by training first thing in the morning rather than a couple hours after waking (and eating). Yes, that meant training on an empty stomach, but it resulted in a pretty impressive pump, and a solid workout always gets the blood flowing through my brain a bit better, so we’ll see what it does for productivity… [Read more…]
